What Alcoholic Drink Is Best When Dieting
It does not require the mind of Stephen Hawking to decipher that combining alcohol and the art of attempting to lose weight is not an equation that has many positive outcomes.
But there is some good news for dieters or anyone planning to lose weight that can’t resist a tipple.
There are certain alcoholic drinks that will not put too much of a dent in your weight loss progress.
The first and most important thing to remember is moderation. Without moderation all of this can be consider pretty much void.
Pure Spirits – pure spirits such as Vodka, Rum, Bacardi or Gin are possibly the best alcoholic drink to consume when watching your weight so long as they are taken neat without any introduction of any mixer. If a mixer is a something that has to accompany then ensure that it is either a tonic water or a low sugar coke.
A standard measure of the above pure spirits it approximately 100 calories so make sure you factor these into your daily allowance if on a calorie controlled diet.
Light Beer – if you are a bloke and the thought of propping up the bar holding a bacardi and (diet) coke drains away your masculinity, a light beer is the next most suitable option.
A light beer contains around 100 calories and the suggested in take is one to two pint glasses a day.
Some Wines – Wine in moderation has been known to lower the risk of heart disease. It doesn’t seem to be wine specifically, but the stress relieving properties of alcohol, as long as they are consumed in moderation. Wine works the same as light beer, less than 100 calories per glass
Still wines are less fattening than their fizzy counterparts.
Every other form of alcohol is advised against.
